Customers and critics alike have raked VW over the coals for its "frustrating" interiors.

    Headlights that blind you in the day and literally block all vision of the road at night,

    Illegal in the EU, Xenon and later LEDs always needed automatic height adjustment (it doesn’t suffice to do it once because cars change angles continuously). Lots has changed in the last 20+ years, though, speaking of VW: How about high beams all the time unless there’s something that could be blinded, then switch them off locally but keep the rest bright.

    road legal trucks which bumpers that START at the hood of my car,

    Like this?

    all around limo tints on literally every car,

    Illegal.

    people disabling their rear lights for some idiotic reason…

    Illegal.

    And that doesn’t even begin to mention the drivers themselves, so fucking self absorbed, tailgating, cutting you off for fun to get to the same light.

    See the thing is that if you build your infrastructure in a way that requires people to drive cars you can’t just take licenses away from asshats.

      Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

      How about high beams all the time unless there’s something that could be blinded, then switch them off locally but keep the rest bright

      Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

      I’m open-source; check me out at GitHub.
